Under normal operations, this cavity between the windows and the protective wall requires to be vented for
heating in winter and venting of heat away from the windows during summer to prevent blow-out by heat
build-up (2 grilles per bay; one top, one bottom). In addition, 24” x 24” access doors are required to allow
maintenance personnel to perform any repairs or cleaning necessary (one per bay). Under normal conditions
the vents will be operational. Under hurricane conditions, OEM shall control from the command podium
motorized air dampers to shut down the grilles. All doois and access doors penetrating this wall shall be
weather-stripped, pre-engineered blast doors to withstand the above noted design loads. All penetrations
through this wall must be carefully reviewed and detailed. Where possible, we will look at ways to avoid
penetrating this wall by re-routing.
